Ermita del Cerrillo (Church of San Bartolomé)

Highlight • Religious Site

Also known as the hermitage of San Bartolomé, the exact date of its construction is not known, although it is known with certainty that it dates back to before the 15th century.
It is located right next to the Cañada Real Segoviana.

Valmayor Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

This reservoir is the second one that stores the most water in the entire Community of Madrid.
Although it belongs to the Guadarrama basin, it is built on the Aulencia River (which is the main tributary of the Guadarrama).
It was decided to build in the mid-sixties due to Madrid's water needs following its demographic growth. Although at first it seemed more logical to build it on the Guadarrama River, it was finally decided to do it on the Aulencia, for several reasons, among which the practical absence of population centers in the area and the granite (and impermeable) bottom where it was located stood out. .

Valmayor Reservoir Trails

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

If the swamp is low, it is a joy to take advantage of the paths that it leaves open.
However, there is an area of twisty roads before reaching the meadows that can delight any cyclist who likes the countryside.
Going fast (safely) is a joy in this area.
